Netflix has released a new trailer for Alfonso Cuarón’s ROMA, the Gravity director’s first theatrical release in four years.
A vivid portrayal of domestic strife and social hierarchy amidst political turmoil, the film follows a young domestic worker Cleo (Yalitza Aparicio) from Mixteco heritage descent and her co-worker Adela (Nancy García), also Mixteca, who work for a small family in the middle-class neighborhood of Roma.
ROMA will premiere at the Venice Film Festival and will arrive on Netflix on December 4, preceded by with a limited theatrical release.
Filmed in luminous black and white, ROMA is an intimate, gut-wrenching and ultimately life-affirming portrait of the ways, small and large, one family maintains its balance in a time of personal, social and political strife.
